Chapter 534 Ex-Husband

Jiang Yu also heard it.

He glanced at the dressing room and tentatively asked, "Shall we go in and say hello to Miss Jiang?"

"No need," Huo Zhizhou refused decisively.

He only came to see Jiang Ruan.

I don't want to bother her.

Jiang Yu and the others sighed silently.

Mo Mo, with her sharp ears, overheard their conversation and, still in her human-machine tone, asked, "I think I just heard my ex-husband's voice. Did you invite him?"

"Why would I invite him?" Tang Bai was not paying much attention when he was talking to Jiang Ruan.

Mo Mo frowned slightly.

Did he mishear?

"I'll go take a look."

He walked out, pointing to the empty corridor: "I must have misheard, there's no one here."

"What do you need me to do later?" Jiang Ruan asked.

"Come down with me for a bit, just show your face in front of everyone." Tang Bai had everything arranged; he didn't want to tire out his young lady. "After this, Mo Mo will take you back first."

"Aren't you coming with us?" Mo Mo asked.

“Not today.” Tang Bai was well aware of everything. “After the banquet, I still have to deal with the family and company shareholders. I’ll meet up with you after that.”

Mo Mo: "Boss."

Jiang Ruan casually replied, "Go ahead."

Mo Mo: "Tang Bai has betrayed us. Should you consider firing him?"

Jiang Ruan was already used to his questions.

I looked down at my phone screen, paying attention to the messages on it.

"The boss has tacitly agreed." Mo Mo, who had never known what embarrassment was, looked at Tang Bai and said in a serious tone, "From now on, you are fired, and I will take over your job and salary."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

Tang Bai: "..."

Jiang Ruan put down her phone and leaned back in her chair: "Do you want to take back what you just said?"

Mo Mo: "No."

"Tang Bai is now a shareholder of the Tang Group, and will be the future president and head of the Tang Group and the Tang family," Jiang Ruan teased him. "He'll have a lot of money."

"It's not mine." Mo Mo was very clear-headed.

The boss is very rich, but he's reluctant to let the money stay in his wallet for a few days.

Tang Bai is rich, but incredibly stingy.

"If you say something nice to me, that money might just go into your pocket," Tang Bai joked with him.

Mo Mo looked at his face.

After a while.

He carefully crafted a sentence: "I will not bow down for five pecks of rice."

Tang Bai: "Six digits."

Mo Mo ignored him.

Who do you think you are?

The boss paid him more than that.

Tang Bai: "Seven figures."

Mo Mo glanced at him.

Minimum seven figures or maximum seven figures?

Although he occasionally disliked this person, it wouldn't hurt to praise him for a seven-figure sum. After all, they were once partners and teammates, and both were the captain's confidants, so they should be friendly to each other.

"You've really made something of yourself," Tang Bai teased him as usual. "Our Mo Mo actually treats money like dirt."

"Why didn't you add more?" Mo Mo asked seriously, her tone calm and incredulous. "I would have agreed if you added just one more digit."

Tang Bai: "..."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

How desperate for money must this person be?

Mo Mo: "?"

Why aren't you saying anything?

"Here you go." Tang Bai handed him a card, casually. "This is what Miss and I saved up for you. We originally planned to give it to you on your birthday, but it's the same to give it to you now."

Mo Mo paused.

He looked at the card, then at Jiang Ruan and Tang Bai.

He asked in a very serious tone, "How much?"

"No less than the price I just offered you." Tang Bai didn't say anything, but simply stuffed the card into his hand.

Mo Mo held it as if it were a rare and precious treasure.

"You always say you want to save money, to save an astronomical figure." Tang Bai looked at his teammate who had gone through thick and thin with him, and became unusually serious. "Different people have different concepts of astronomical figures. The amount you've saved is considered a relatively high amount in the eyes of ordinary people."

This guy never talks about his situation.

But he knew something was definitely wrong.

"If it's not enough, can I borrow some from you?" Mo Mo asked.

Tang Bai: "?"

Jiang Ruan: "?"

Both of them turned their gazes to him at the same time.

Jiang Ruan made an unlikely guess: "You don't happen to owe money to loan sharks, do you?"

Mo Mo: "No."

Jiang Ruan stared at him.

She was genuinely curious about what could have made Mo Mo so eager for money.

"As long as it's not illegal, criminal, or against public order and good morals, it's fine," she gave him.

Mo Mo was immediately delighted, her clear black and white eyes sparkling.

This was the first time Jiang Ruan and Tang Bai had seen such an expression.

Just then.

There was a knock on the door.

"Young Master, the Master wants you and Chairman Jiang to leave."

"I understand." Tang Bai said quickly, then his gaze fell on Jiang Ruan, and he extended his hand in a gentlemanly manner, "Please, my dear young lady."

Jiang Ruan got up, took his arm, and went downstairs.

At the same time.

The Tang family also called Huo Zhizhou.

Assistant Jiang declined, saying, "The boss prefers peace and quiet, so I won't go down."

Tang Sheng was not surprised at all by this result.

But he didn't care. Huo Zhizhou had entered through the main gate, and quite a few people had seen him.

His not coming down is actually more in line with his behavior.

"Would you like to take a look in the hallway?" Jiang Yu asked Huo Zhizhou, who was sitting on the sofa. "Miss Jiang and Tang Bai have already gone downstairs."

Huo Zhizhou was about to say no need.

But the body, once standing up, gave the answer before the mind.

"The door faces outwards, offering a better view of Miss Jiang's face." Jiang Yu had already observed everything, "but Miss Jiang won't notice."

"Um."

After Huo Zhizhou finished speaking, he walked outside.

As soon as I stepped into the corridor, I noticed out of the corner of my eye that there was another person standing not far to my right.

He glanced to the side.

He met Mo Mo's gaze as she turned around.

Mo Mo blinked twice, and three words slipped out: "Ex-husband?"

It turns out he hadn't misheard.

"Hmm." Huo Zhizhou nodded slightly.

"Why are you here?" Mo Mo asked directly, her words barely even qualifying as a question. "Tang Bai said he didn't invite you."

Jiang, the special assistant, answered on his behalf: "It was the Tang family head who invited us."

Mo Mo: "You've come to see the boss?"

Huo Zhizhou: "Mm."

Mo Mo: "You want to make up with the boss?"

Huo Zhizhou did not answer.

He wants to reconcile with Ruan Ruan.

But he also knew that he would never be forgiven by her for what he had done and said.

"Why aren't you saying anything? Have you become mute?" Mo Mo's voice sounded just like a machine.

Huo Zhizhou: "..."

Huo Zhizhou looked at this incessantly chattering person and frowned almost imperceptibly between his brows.

Jiang Ruan is already a director, yet this person still talks so much.

Will it really not cause her any trouble?

“Being mute won’t work; you’ll suffer for it,” Mo Mo said seriously. “Those people who’ve been sending flowers and gifts to the boss lately are all incredibly eloquent.”

Lin Bei paused.

He asked instinctively, "A suitor?"

Mo Mo: "Mm."

Lin Bei's own boss glanced at it.

Mo Mo continued, speaking the truth: "Those people are decent-looking, quite young, and good at talking, but I don't know if the boss has taken a liking to them."
